Stuck on a boat <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">with</span> a bunch of maladjusted <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Victorians</span> on our way to a Volcano. Oh Joy. Well..they're <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">alright</span> for the most part..just some bizarre behaviors every once in a while. I guess extreme repression breeds...well..it just breeds. The <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Bardhaven</span> dude is a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">weird</span> one....dark good looks and that sort of "I'm stuck on myself" look about him, AND I just don't trust him AT ALL, in his year book at school he was probably voted most likely to <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">double cross</span>, ...but every one seems to take him in stride. The Captain it sort of a rough and so is his sailing. Not very reassuring(One <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">reeeeelly</span> good thing? <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Bardhaven</span> dude and the Captain eat their meals together at the captain's mess. Away from ME. Yes!). ANYWAY....assisting the Sputnik is the job, I guess....so I just goes with the flows. </span><span style="font-family: georgia;font-size:100%;" ><br /><br /><br /></span> <span style="font-family: georgia;font-family:georgia;font-size:100%;" > I'm not all that well <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">acquainted</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">wi</span>th most of the folks on this dingy, but <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">Darkling</span> is among them and she's easy to get along with. Myself, being difficult to get along with, this is always a valuable find for me. I'm glad for her company, she's always clever and affectionate and apparently she's a halfbreed(Poor thing is only half <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11">Sidhe</span>) and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">although</span> historically this combination tends to produce dribbling insanity she seems to have escaped that horrible fate. Missing the Cat however...furry companionship like hers is always a plus. Guess I'm doing without it this trip. Speaking of animals...there are PENGUINS on this ship. That's all...not sure what to say on that. I think they are <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Gnarli's</span>? I dunno...it's just ....unusual. </span><span style="font-family: georgia;font-size:100%;" ><br /><br /></span> <span style="font-family: georgia;font-family:georgia;font-size:100%;" >This world must be of the strangest that Sputnik has ever taken me to....figures we'd get stranded here. Ah well....at least the friends are good. </span>Terry Lightfoothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04151836197168179083noreply@blogger.com
